Hickory, North Carolina · Burke, Catawba, and Caldwell counties
We buy houses as-is in Hickory and in Burke, Catawba, and Caldwell counties. Hickory’s city limits intersect all three counties, so the property address—not the city name alone—helps identify the right county office for a deed, tax, estate, or permit question.
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
Questions about the house? Call 888-274-5006.
We'll give you a written cash offer within 24 hours.

Places worth knowing
Neighborhood and town names can help orient a conversation, but they do not establish a property’s exact boundary or county. For office questions, start with the address.
The City of Hickory lists neighborhood associations in Claremont, Forest Hills, Green Park, Highland, Kenworth, Lakeland Park, Ridgeview, and West Hickory/Westmont.
For your sale: These names are useful local orientation, not parcel-boundary determinations. Use the property address when checking a specific city or county office.
The City identifies downtown as Hickory’s central business district and points to Union Square and City Walk.
For your sale: If a property is a local historic landmark or sits in a locally designated historic district, the City Historic Preservation Commission reviews applications for proposed modifications. Check the designation for the exact address before planning work.

The City of Conover, City of Newton, and Town of Long View are separate municipalities, not Hickory neighborhood names.
For your sale: For a property in one of these places, confirm its municipality and county before relying on Hickory city instructions for permits, inspections, or code questions.

Where to get help
Hickory is in a three-county area, and the city, counties, and nearby municipalities have distinct responsibilities. Confirm the property’s municipality and county before relying on an office’s instructions.
The Permit Center coordinates development approvals and occupancy of existing buildings. It directs building-code questions to Catawba County Building Services. Hickory Code Enforcement also lists housing and nuisance matters among its responsibilities.
The three counties publish separate inspection contacts. The right office depends on the property’s location; these pages do not establish one inspection rule for every sale.
Each county has its own Register of Deeds and tax-office route. Confirm the county first, then use the office that handles the record or property-tax question.

The North Carolina court system provides a county-specific Clerk of Court contact route for each county. For an inherited property, start with the county tied to the property and the estate’s court records; the signer for a particular sale depends on the estate documents and applicable authority.

Selling choices
We have two ways to buy. A Cash Offer is built for speed, condition, and tough situations — heavy repairs, tight timelines, difficult circumstances. EZ Sale is often the better fit when the house doesn't need major repairs and you want a higher number. Either way, you compare written numbers and you pick what works best for you.
If the question is about an estate, notice, tenant, code issue, fire damage, or lien, start with the page for that situation:
Hickory city limits intersect Burke, Catawba, and Caldwell counties. The city name alone does not identify the county for a particular parcel, so confirm the property’s county before contacting a county office.
No. Conover and Newton are cities, and Long View is a town. They are separate municipalities from Hickory, so confirm the actual municipality and county for permit, inspection, and code questions.
Hickory’s Permit Center coordinates development approvals and occupancy of existing buildings and directs building-code questions to Catawba County Building Services. Burke and Caldwell counties publish separate inspection contacts. Check the office for the exact property location before relying on its instructions.
Each county has its own Register of Deeds and tax-office route, and the North Carolina court system lists county-specific Clerk of Court contacts. First confirm whether the property is in Burke, Catawba, or Caldwell County, then use that county’s office links on this page.
